More photos of the H&M bikini campaign popped up on the Internet recently, and I thought I’d share these cool shots with you! Makes me wish summer was right now…beach, bikinis, and Coronas…Also, makes me want to put down the Kinder egg and get to the gym…le sigh.

Eat your heart out, Pete Doherty, Kate Moss is now officially (allegedly) off the market! Kate and her boyfriend of 2+ years Count Von Count Jamie Hince are reported to have gotten engaged in Mustique on her 36th birthday. And if that wasn’t enough happy news in the world of top models, Lara Stone, too, got engaged to actor/comedian David Walliams, after dating him for only 4 months! And while I’m quite skeptical about the length of their courtship, as well as their age difference (almost 15 years), best of luck to them anyway. Can’t wait to see their wedding gowns!

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve gained some (20lbs) weight recently, but it really irks me when people throw around the “F” word (as in fat) at girls that are size 4 at the most. First Gemma Ward, and now Lara Stone? Lara’s story is in January’s Vogue, and gives us a rare glimpse into the not-so-pretty side of modeling.

Still, it’s not easy being a four in a land of zeros. We don’t tend to talk much about models’ inner lives. It seems enough that they are enviably thin, impossibly beautiful, and paid gobs of money to stand around in gorgeous clothes, but it can be hard on a young girl’s psyche to constantly hear how different you are. “It’s depressing when the clothes don’t fit and you are always the odd one out,” says Stone. Wearing black Azzedine Alaïa boots, a Balenciaga miniskirt, and a Chanel necklace, Stone looks every inch a supermodel at the peak of her career, but her size remains an issue. “I was on a shoot just last week,” she says. “And the stylist took out this tight corset dress and said, ‘Here, put it on,’ and I was like, ‘Who are you kidding?’ There was no way, so that was very rude of her. It’s like, come on, she’s a woman; whether you’re buying jeans at the mall or wearing couture, you know what it’s like for clothes not to fit. It’s not an easy kind of rejection, because it’s very personal. It’s you, your body. You take it to heart.”

Here’s hoping that more designers and stylists will take note of Lara Stone’s phenomenal success, and ensure that the girls that are walking down their runways and starring in their ads are not only beautiful, but also healthy. Though that might take a while.

Speaking of Karl. He shot Lara Stone and Baptiste Giabiconi for an editorial in Numéro magazine. The dress below is so gorgeous, it’s making me want to do bad things to my savings account. My Style Fille favorite Diane Kruger wore the Versace Atelier dress while promoting The Inglourious Basterds back in August…Ahh…to be styled by Lagerfeld…ultimate, no? Hot clothes, hot people, what else is there to life?
